I am having problems with the quick search feature. I did a random search for Mcdonalds and a map pulls up that is no where around me. I clicked update location but it says my location is unavailable. I have GPS enabled and my navigation app works just fine.

HTC Droid Eris :: Wrong Location / Location Unavailable

Jul 2, 2010

i've had my phone about 3 weeks now. up until last week, the htc weather widget would update to my current location. when i was home, it would show the town i live in. i also had the google internet option to use my location and this would also work perfectly until last sunday.now, the weather location was stuck on miami no matter where i went (as far north as west palm beach) and the internet shows up 'location unavailable'. i have found out that the gps is picking up where i am in goggle maps but it seems that the cell towers are not as far as weather and internet location are concerned. i have tried all of the obvious settings.i did a factory reset and now my weather says ft lauderdale which is closer to me but still not my town. it does not update (manually either) as i move. the internet location still says location unavailable although for a fleeting minute after the factory reset, it DID locate me....then it was gone so i called verizon, they didn't have a clue. then i took it to the store and it turns out EVERY phone the tech tried in the store had the same problem, including his. he told me it was a google problem and there was nothing he could do about it. i felt if i tried explaining how that would make it a verizon problem as well, it would be a losing battle

Android :: Location Manager Minimum Update Time Overridden / When Location Changes?

Oct 26, 2010

I'm developing a mapping app using Eclipse 3.5.I'm setting the minimum update period with the LocationManager's requestLocationUpdates method, via a configuration activity. When I set the property I see in Logcat that the system process sets the value OK.When I actually send a new location from the DDMS emulator control and the location changes on the map view, I see that the system process then sets the minimum time to zero.Below is a capture of the system's log messages. You can see that I'm setting the period to 32 seconds, then 16, then, after I've sent a simulated location change the system sets it to zero.The map responds to location changes to location changes instantly even if they are sent only a couple of seconds apart.

HTC Eris :: Maps GPS "your Location Is Unavailable At This Time"

Nov 17, 2010

I searched and couldn't find anything about this on the forum. I have a rooted Eris running froyo. I've been traveling a LOT lately, so I've been using Nav whereas usually I don't need to. Repeatedly in my travels of the last month or so, nav will tell me "your location is currently unavailable" when I try to get directions from "my location" to a destination. This seems to be random and totally independent from signal strength of towers or the GPS. Last night while driving into Memphis I really needed it because I had no clue how to get where I was going. I eventually had to pull over and reboot the phone, which immediately fixed the problem. It has randomly started working again in the past without a reboot, and I believe rebooting did NOT fix the problem on a few of those occasions although I'm not positive about that.

Is the solution always going to be to do a reboot, or is there some setting or bug I can fix?

General :: Devices Reporting Wrong Location After Location Spoofing

Mar 15, 2013

Recently all my android devices think they are in Spain when I am at home in Toronto.

I think this was caused when I ran a location spoofing program on only one of my devices, one of the locations I set it to was Spain (among others).

I've tried clearing the data for the Network Location apps, changing the SSID on my router with no luck.

The only way it shows the correct location is when I go outside and run Google maps long enough to get a GPS fix. But when I go back inside I am back in Spain!

The devices this is affectingGalaxy Nexus with my google account

Nexus 7 with my google account

Galaxy S3 with my google account

Galaxy S2 without my google account

HTC Desire :: Home Location Fixed Instead Of Current Location

Nov 14, 2010

How could I fix the location which appears on the clock on the home screen and serves as weather forecast location? I am not living near a big city listed on the weather location list and when at home, the current location usually is indicated some dozen miles away from my home. This could be a cosmetic problem, but in the Alps (where I am living) weather a short distance away can be quite different from where you are.
Besides that, it would be nice to know the weather at home while beeing abroad.

Android :: Location Manager Does Not Detect Location Correctly

Sep 17, 2010

In my application I have to fetch the current location. First it correctly fetches the location. But we are moving from the current location to some other location. It shows the previous address. It is not updating the location. My code is: locManager = (LocationManager)getSystemService(Context.LOCATION_SERVICE); locListener = new MyLocationListener();locManager.requestLocationUpdates(LocationManager .GPS_PROVIDER ,0,0,locListener); location = locManager.getLastKnownLocation(LocationManager.GPS_PROVIDER);if(location != null){latitude = location.getLatitude();longitude = location.getLongitude();} Please find the mistake and when i launch first time it is not working on second time itself it is working so check this thing also.

Android :: Testing Location Using Network As Location Provider?

Jan 27, 2010

I have an application which uses the network as the location provider (rather than GPS eg.), however I can't seem to figure out how to send the emulator test coordinates. In DDMS I would usually send coordinates in the Emulator Control tab.Is there a place to simulate coordinates derived from the cell phone network provider?

Android :: Location Provider / Coarse Location

Jun 25, 2009

The way we are retrieving locations from our Android phones is to 1st get a Coarse Location followed by a Fine Location. This is for the case where the user may be inside a building initially and unable to track satellites. After we get our coarse location we transition to a fine location to track satellites. This method has been working fine for several months. We recently upgraded to 1.5 and our mapping application, to my recollection continued to work.For the past couple of days we have not been able to get a coarse location and we are receiving a status message in the onStatusChange callback of.We have re- installed previous versions our code that used 1.1 and we are receiving the same status message of .TEMPORARILY_UNAVAILABLE. Other than the obvious description of the constant, we can find no meaningful information.

Android :: UNable To Get Update Current Location

Nov 17, 2010

I have an activity that needs to display an alert to user when location is updated,
but i need first to get current location (update last known location) and then start a location update listener to display alert in this activity.

Basically what i need is to display an alert if location changed from time activity was created.

If i use getLastKnownLocation when activity is created, it might be outdated, then the requestLocationUpdate listener is called a few seconds from activity creation time.

How can i do this?

Android :: Change Update Time Of Location Overlay

Aug 18, 2010

I am trying to see if anyone knows if it is possible to change the update time of MyLocationOverlay (http://bit .ly /dBIVdj). I have tried subclassing MyLocationOverlay and implementing my own location manager but when that happens I do not see the overlay on the map. I would try overriding the drawMyLocation method however I don't know which canvas to provide the method (since I would be drawing onLocationChange). To summarize, I am looking to do three things in MyLocationOverlay subclass:

1. Change the location update times to whatever I want.

2. Draw the "my location" dot with the radius when the onLocationChanged() method is called.
I've thought about making my own special class with special overlay -- but I feel like there has to be a better method to get what I want out of this class.

Android :: 1.6 Update - GPS Location Provider Stop Unexpectedly

Oct 22, 2009

Looks like I've run into some breakage from 1.5 to 1.6 after all. I am registering location listeners with LocationManager.requestLocationUpdates() With GPS as location provider, I run into a problem with navigation stopping by itself after a few seconds, just to return, stop again, in an endless cycle. I haven't seen this prior to 1.6 Donut and I have no clue what might cause this problem.

Here's the Logcat output:

10-21 21:53:09.147: DEBUG/libgps(74): PDSM_PD_EVENT_GPS_BEGIN 10-21 21:53:11.177: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): exceeded MIN_FIX_COUNT 10-21 21:53:11.177: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): stopNavigating 10-21 21:53:11.177: DEBUG/libgps(74): qct_gps_stop 10-21 21:53:11.187: DEBUG/libgps(74): PDSM_PD_EVENT_END 10-21 21:53:11.187: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): Releasing wakelock 10-21 21:53:13.097: DEBUG/dalvikvm(74): GC freed 2562 objects / 104912 bytes in 223ms 10-21 21:53:20.227: DEBUG/dalvikvm(74): GC freed 1345 objects / 51352 bytes in 236ms 10-21 21:53:21.180: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): ALARM_WAKEUP 10-21 21:53:21.187: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): startNavigating 10-21 21:53:21.187: DEBUG/libgps(74): qct_gps_set_position_mode = 1, fix_frequency = 10 10-21 21:53:21.187: DEBUG/libgps(74): qct_gps_start 10-21 21:53:21.207: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): Acquiring wakelock 10-21 21:53:22.147: DEBUG/libgps(74): PDSM_PD_EVENT_GPS_BEGIN 10-21 21:53:24.167: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): TTFF: 2978 10-21 21:53:27.287: DEBUG/dalvikvm(74): GC freed 1417 objects / 52512 bytes in 232ms 10-21 21:53:34.397: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): exceeded MIN_FIX_COUNT 10-21 21:53:34.397: DEBUG/GpsLocationProvider(74): stopNavigating (and so forth)

A web research for these logs didn't turn up anything (which is unusual in my experience), so this leads me to post the question here wondering what the root of the problem might be.

HTC Desire HD :: Unable To Locate Satellite To Update Location

Nov 20, 2010

I was wondering if anybody had the same issue with GPS as I did. When I launched Locations first time, it found the satelite very fast. Now it almost cannot find a satelite to update my location. I wrote almost, because once it did manage, but that was once in at least twenty tries. Do you have any idea how to check if the radio is ok. I read somewhere that one should try with master reset of the phone. If so, would it be enough to backup my data with Titanium backup and option "Backup all users apps + system data" and restore it later on? Will that make a full restore of my phone or do I have to backup some additoial data? Like, what will happend to my personalize data, apps passwords etc.

HTC EVO 4G :: After The Froyo Update - GPS Takes Much Longer Than Before To Find My Location And 4G

Aug 29, 2010

I have this phone for probably two months now. Overall I'm quite happy considering I have an old one for more than five years.

However, I have two issues that are really bugging me. I think it might have occurred after the froyo update although I'm not sure.

My first issue is the GPS. I takes much longer than before to find my location although when it does it is very accurate. Lots of time it's more than five minutes. It was much faster before. I don't know what's going on!

Second I have 4G problem. If I serf the web with 4G, I'm fine. When I turn on my tethering more than 90% of the time, it will automatically revert back to 3G even if I have good connection (two or more bars). This is quite maddening to say the least. Was wondering if anyone has any ideas. Will a factory reset.
